Horses 1908

David Burliuk's "Horses" (1908) is a bold, expressive painting that exemplifies the artist's embrace of Expressionism. The thick brushstrokes and vibrant colors create a dynamic energy, capturing the movement and vitality of the horses. Burliuk's style is characterized by its simplified forms and emotional intensity, a style that was influenced by his involvement with the avant-garde movement in Russia. The painting's raw, almost primitive feel aligns with the themes of nature and animalistic power that were common in early 20th century art.
